2012 Mini Cooper problems

Hi everyone!

I bought a 2012 Manual transmission mini cooper s 2 weeks ago. After a while car's engine barely worked and stopped in the middle of the road. I scan the codes and I found that P10EE(Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor Pressure low bank1). I changed the high pressure fuel pump($800) by myself and erase the codes. Car run very well for 15 minutes and engine worked barely again and stopped. I erase the codes again and drive the car for 30 seconds and it stopped again. I erased one more time and keep the RPM between 1000-2000 and I drove it to my home for 5 minutes without engine stopping. But the code is still there. I do not know whats going on with the car. Even though I change the pump why I still see the code and experience the problem. By the way first I was changing the pump, I took the battery connection off for 15 minutes and put it back and I got another code A3C1 - A3B4 (FRMFA Failure NETWORK MANAGEMENT and CAN ID 21A ERROR FAILURE MESSAGE STATUS OF LAMPS). So finally, car is running but i am afraid of driving it with high RPM. I still have p10ee code and on the mini-cooper screen it says: Lighting system (which related to A3C1). I do not know what to do. I am hoping that I did a good thing by changing the high pressure pump and I do not if I should replace the footwell module and try everything again. Can you guys please help me finding the solution? Thank you

Well, you could try the module. Realize you bought one of the biggest money pits of all time. Those things are English. BMW monstrosities that you need an expert mechanic with very expensive scan tools to work on. Everything is run by computer modules and can bus wiring. And that thing's 12 years old which is generally when they start falling apart electronically. Good luck with it but realize that's not going to be defendable vehicle


Thank you so much for your answer. I can see that I bought a crap. I am going to sell it asap. Thank you again
